Re: Bernie-Faulk UNhappy

I dont think anyone here could legitimatly bash Jacksons play. He has had a few growing pains but has looked really good. He should not be compared to Faulk yet that is unfair to the young man. He will hopefully be a superstar back and a team player.

He does however talk to much about what if's way to much. If he is looking over his shoulder at Faulk thinking his job is in jeopardy then he is a fool. The starting role is his and if anything Faulk would be there to help much like Bettis did with parker in Pittsburgh. I think this drama was created a little bit by Jackson with some of his outburst. I like the kid he is a good player and I am trying to remember he is a young man that just became a millionaire. Faulk was pretty cocky his first couple years in indy so Im trying to take it all with a grain of salt.

Re: Bernie-Faulk UNhappy

but I firmly believe that football is a team sport and one bad apple will ruin a peck. If Faulk is going to act in any way that he is going to be a determinant team chemistry, I say Faulk him!!

As much as I like Faulk...nothing is above the team.

What would make you think that Faulk could be a bad apple, just because Bernie says so? Instead of saying Faulk him, doesn't Faulk deserve the benefit of the doubt? He's been a stellar Ram since he got here. He steps back and gives up his starting job. I mean cmon, Faulk deserves the benefit of the doubt over some lame article Bernie writes.

Agreed. The Rams haven't had a 1,000 yard rusher since 2001, but some people apparently don't want to recognize the accomplishment since Jackson's second season wasn't absolutely perfect or something.
